Note: The man page says lppasswd is setuid root, but ls -l shows that on Debian it is setuid lp. Therefore it does not work because it has no write access to /etc/cups -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.4.28-ow1 Locale: LANG=zh_TW.Big5, LC_CTYPE=zh_TW.Big5 (charmap=BIG5) Versions of packages cupsys depends on: ii adduser 3.91 Add and remove users and groups ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.2 Debian configuration management sy ii gs-esp 8.15.1.dfsg.1-2 The Ghostscript PostScript interpr ii libacl1 2.2.39-1 Access control list shared library ii libc6 2.3.6-15 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libcupsimage2 1.2.1-3 Common UNIX Printing System(tm) - ii libcupsys2 1.2.1-3 Common UNIX Printing System(tm) - ii libdbus-1-2 0.62-4 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libgnutls13 1.3.5-1.1 the GNU TLS library - runtime libr ii libldap2 2.1.30-13 OpenLDAP libraries ii libpam0g 0.79-3.1 Pluggable Authentication Modules l ii libpaper1 1.1.19 Library for handling paper charact ii libslp1 1.2.1-5 OpenSLP libraries ii lsb-base 3.1-10 Linux Standard Base 3.1 init scrip ii patch 2.5.9-4 Apply a diff file to an original ii perl-modules 5.8.8-6 Core Perl modules ii procps 1:3.2.7-2 /proc file system utilities ii xpdf-utils [poppler-util 3.01-8 Portable Document Format (PDF) sui ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3-12 compression library - runtime Versions of packages cupsys recommends: ii cupsys-client 1.2.1-3 Common UNIX Printing System(tm) - pn foomatic-filters <none> (no description available) ii smbclient 3.0.22-1 a LanManager-like simple client fo -- debconf information: cupsys/raw-print: true cupsys/ports: 631 * cupsys/backend: ipp, lpd, parallel, socket, usb cupsys/portserror: cupsys/browse: true -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
